Change can be scary especially when it is necessary. My work as a psychotherapist is to help you to better understand yourself and your challenges, so you can work through the process of change with a sense of safety and purpose.
The foundation of my work whether I am counseling couples or individuals is my respect for your values and life experiences. I develop a shared understanding with my clients which we then use to chart the path toward change and growth.
Many of my clients find that the process of telling their personal stories and reflecting upon their experiences frees them. Others find that a variety of tools and techniques are also helpful to achieve their goals. When my clients and I decide that focused techniques will speed positive movement, I use a variety of tools including Interpersonal Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Advanced Integrative Therapy (a form of energy psychotherapy), meditation, and guided imagery.
My clients typically seek to make progress in one or more of the following areas.
For Men and Women
